• Esa época del año que puedes contemplar en mí, cuando las hojas amarillas, o ninguna, o pocas, cuelgan de esas ramas que tiemblan contra el frío, coros arruinados desnudos, donde tarde cantaron los dulces pájaros. En mí ves el crepúsculo de tal día, Como después de la puesta del sol se desvanece en el oeste, Que por-y-por la negra noche se lleva.

  William Shakespeare

  Sweet, Twilight, Sunset

  Holds up each summer day and shakes
  It out suspiciously, lest swarms
  Of grape-dark clouds are lurking there.

• Los británicos están orgullosos de su capacidad para crear un embrollo y luego salir airosos de todas las dificultades. Debo sacudirme el orgullo británico: el embrollo no es una institución exclusivamente británica.

• La vulnerabilidad es el único estado auténtico. Ser vulnerable significa estar abierto a las heridas, pero también al placer. Estar abierto a las heridas de la vida significa también estar abierto a la generosidad y la belleza. No enmascares ni niegues tu vulnerabilidad: es tu mayor riqueza. Sé vulnerable: tiembla y estremécete con ella. La nueva bondad que te llega, en forma de personas, situaciones y cosas, sólo puede llegarte cuando eres vulnerable, es decir, abierto.

  Stephen Russell

• Vineyards and shining harvests, pastures, arbors,
  And all this our very utmost toil
  Can hardly care for, we wear down our strength
  Whether in oxen or in men, we dull
  The edges of our ploughshares, and in return
  Our fields turn mean and stingy, underfed,
  And so today the farmer shakes his head,
  More and more often sighing that his work,
  The labour of his hands, has come to naught.

  Lucrecio
